Looking at the mountains of account books, Gu Shuiyue could completely get a glimpse of Meng Xiyu's conspiracy.

"When are the wages paid?"

"The first day of every month. “

"When did the monthly orders of the masters be issued?"

"Fifteen of the month. “

Today is the ninth day of the second month, and if she can't sort out these ledgers within six days, then she can't correctly issue the monthly rules of her masters, then she will be crusaded against by all the masters, and on the first day of the next month, when she can't pay the wages of the next people, these people will resign. By that time, the whole palace would be in chaos. Even if King Yun liked her, he would not tolerate Gu Shuiyue messing around and making a mess of his palace.

In contrast, Meng Xiyu is completely a perfect virtuous helper. At that time, all power will return to Meng Xiyu's hands.

Meng Xiyu's trick is not clever, this is the real killing without a blade.

At this time, Gu Shuiyue was faced with two choices.

First, go to Meng Xiyu to ask for some helpers to help him manage his accounts.

Second, return the power of the master to Meng Xiyu, stop the loss in time, and avoid poking out a bigger Lou Zi.

Gu Shuiyue chose the third.

The first one, Meng Xiyu's people will not do their best to help her, maybe they will make some stumbling blocks, and then she will be sold and will have to help with money.

Second, Gu Shuiyue has never been a person who will admit defeat. If she compromised with Meng Xiyu this time, she would really be a favorite concubine who relied on her face to please the prince. How can she take revenge on Emperor Wangyue and Gu Tianqing like this?

Gu Shuiyue chose to find a helper by herself. The people in the palace who are proficient in accounting are all Meng Xiyu's people, and she can only find them from outside the mansion.

Gu Shuiyue clenched the dragon yin bead in her palm and walked down the street. It was the first time she had walked on the streets of Shuoyun. Mochizuki is in the south, Shuoyun is in the north, one south and one north, and the customs are also very different.

On the streets in the south, there are mostly fat powder jewelry gadgets, and on the streets in the north, there are big knives and saddles. Gu Shuiyue walked straight through the most lively street market in the capital and walked into an inconspicuous shop.

The eyes of the shopkeeper swept over Gu Shuiyue's body, and he suddenly lost interest, just because Gu Shuiyue didn't have anything of value on her body except for her outstanding temperament. The children of the official family who fell in the middle of the family, the shopkeeper quickly defined Gu Shuiyue.

Gu Shuiyue handed the dragon yin bead in her hand directly in front of the shopkeeper.

"The galaxy turns, see you in the bright moon. Shopkeeper, I should be this, what is this value?"

The shopkeeper said impatiently: "Worthless." “

"Ten thousand taels. “

"I don't want to send it. “

"I'll give you ten thousand taels. “

After Gu Shuiyue finished speaking, the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly became deep. It was no longer the eyes of a merchant force, but the eyes of a well-trained soldier with loyalty and composure.

As the biggest enemy of the Mochizuki Kingdom, Shuoyun is the country that Gu Tianlan is most concerned about. In her previous life, she installed many people in Shuoyun, including peddlers, pawns, merchants, and even court officials. Gu Tianlan's memory is very good, this inconspicuous pawnshop located in the downtown area of Shuoyun is a dark line under her.

After her death, the 100,000 army was slaughtered, and these dark lines were precious, and Gu Shuiyue would not use them unless it was absolutely necessary.

The shopkeeper suppressed his excitement and said in a low voice: "Subordinates are at ease, meet the master." “

These dark lines only belonged to Gu Tianlan, and when the news of Gu Tianlan's death came, the dark lines fell into a chaotic situation and were on the verge of collapse for a while. The master is gone, what's the point of them staying where they are?

Some chose to leave, while others stayed. Those who remained were people who were absolutely loyal to Gu Tianlan, and they would rather keep a promise until they were old until they died, and their children and grandchildren would also keep this promise.

An Xian didn't expect that one day he would hear such a joint language, and this day would come so quickly. He thought he would die of old age so peacefully. He almost burst into tears of emotion.

"I was just joking, shopkeeper, you can help me see the value of this bead again. Gu Shuiyue said.

An Xian took the beads and looked at them carefully.

Transparent beads the size of a thumb are nothing special from the outside. Gu Qian has looked for many people, but they have never seen the origin of this bead.

"This boy, do you want to try it?" the shopkeeper suddenly gave a very bizarre answer.

Gu Shuiyue was dressed as a man, except for calling out the host for a momentary gaffe just now, he resumed his attitude towards a guest.

"Fell?" Gu Shuiyue was also startled, this sounded very unbelievable, but thinking about it, Gu Qian regarded this bead as a treasure, this may be the only method he has not tried.

Gu Shuiyue looked at the old shopkeeper and saw that his face was serious, not like a joke at all.

The people who can be selected by her as the dark line are not ordinary people, such as the old shopkeeper in front of her, who is proficient in things like jewelry, and is also a master of accounting skills.

Gu Shuiyue picked up the bead, gritted her teeth, and fell to the ground fiercely.

With a "bang", the beads were shattered, and a ray of silvery-white light shone and flew up, flew out of the door, and then disappeared.

Gu Shuiyue glanced at the old shopkeeper, her eyes flashed with a hint of realization, and she quickly calmed down. The old shopkeeper spread his hands: "This son, this is what you fell, and it has nothing to do with decay." “

The dagger in Gu Shuiyue's sleeve fell on the old shopkeeper's neck: "A broken bead is nothing, I just asked by the way, this son actually came to you today." “

The old shopkeeper of Shui Yuexuan, known as the first god operator in the capital, is very proficient in accounting.

Shuiyuexuan's old shopkeeper An Xian was half-forced to be taken back to the palace by Gu Shuiyue and became his helper.

A large pile of accounts was piled up in front of An Xian, and Gu Shuiyue was responsible for putting the knife against An Xian's neck and letting him work.

"Niangniang, I heard that Gu Shuiyue hijacked Shuiyuexuan's shopkeeper to settle accounts for her. What happened here quickly reached Meng Xiyu's ears.

"Hijacking?" Meng Xiyu was drinking tea and quickly caught the word.

"Many people watched Gu Shuiyue put the dagger against the old shopkeeper's neck and brought it back, the old shopkeeper is proficient in settling accounts, what if he solves this problem for Gu Shuiyue?"

Meng Xiyu didn't seem to be in a hurry: "A layman looks at the accounts, it's like a fantasy. Since the old shopkeeper was persecuted, he obviously wouldn't help Gu Shuiyue wholeheartedly, he did some tricks and feet in the accounts, and Gu Shuiyue couldn't see it at all. Ru Xiu, find an opportunity to approach the old shopkeeper and let him ......" Meng Xiyu lowered her voice and said in Ru Xiu's ear.

Ru Xiu listened to Meng Xiyu's idea and was immediately overjoyed.

She is not smarter than Cai Qing, but she was chosen by Meng Xiyu by her side, and she is obviously not too stupid.

Ru Xiu found a suitable opportunity and had a chance to be alone with the old shopkeeper.

"Old man, the princess values you and entrusts you with such an important matter. Ru Xiu said pretendedly.

The shrewd old face of the shopkeeper An suddenly turned red with anger: "If she really cares about it, she should hold the tea and invite the old man to come, instead of serving with a dagger! The princess has an extraordinary status, she has orders, how dare the old man not obey?"

An Xian's few words were yin and yang, and he was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Gu Shuiyue.

Ru Xiu was overjoyed again: "I also think that the princess is a little too much, old man, do you have a breath in your heart?"

"Don't take a breath, the old and decayed qi is about to burn down this house!"

"I have a way to relieve the old man's anger here. Ru Xiu lowered her voice and said, "Old man, you might as well change the money allocated to the second master to less, the second master is a treasure in the old lady's heart, if you know that the princess will deduct the second master's silver money as soon as she takes charge of the house, the old lady will not spare the princess." When the time comes, won't you be angry?"

Shopkeeper An originally had a dark face, but after listening to Ru Xiu's words at this time, his face suddenly became happy: "Thank you girl for your advice, the evil breath of the old decay has finally come out!"

Ru Xiu looked at the back of the shopkeeper leaving, and couldn't help but admire the side concubine Niangniang, this is the real killing of the enemy without spending a single soldier!

What Ru Xiu didn't know was that An Xian hurriedly returned to the study, and as soon as the door closed, the joy on his face suddenly turned into a gloomy color.

He walked to Gu Shuiyue's side and told Gu Shuiyue what Ru Xiu had just said to him without reservation.

"Master, my subordinate just pretended to agree to her, but he will definitely not do what she said. This palace is full of dangers, you must be careful. "Calm and bitter.

Gu Shuiyue threw the dagger in her hand and said in the same low voice: "Shopkeeper An, why don't you do what she said? You were coerced by me to look at the account book, and you were already angry, why don't you take this opportunity to take a good breath?"

Even though he has been immersed in power schemes for many years, An Xian was still stunned when he heard this. It was the first time he had seen someone ask someone to frame him. As soon as Gu Shuiyue's gaze touched, four words suddenly flashed in An Xian's mind—the plan will be calculated!

"Master, I understand. “

Gu Shuiyue nodded, and the dagger in her hand was pressed against An Xian's neck: "Shopkeeper An, you have also used the toilet and drunk the tea, you should work hard, otherwise don't blame the princess for not having a long eye on the knife." “

Shopkeeper An showed an unwilling expression on his face, but he was forced to give in to the dagger around his neck, and could only read the account book seriously.

Gu Shuiyue and Shopkeeper An are both old drama bones, and outsiders can only see their saber rattling, but they don't see that they are acting at all.

The show has just begun!
